The Obi One: Episode 2 - Frank Lampard

John Obi Mikel and Chris McHardy
About this episode

On Episode 2 of the brand new Obi One Podcast, John Obi Mikel and Chris McHardy are joined by a man John Terry labelled on last week’s installment as “the greatest player in Chelsea’s history”. Step forward, ‘Super’ Frank Lampard.


In a wide-ranging conversation, Frank talks tears, tantrums and transfers. He opens up on his second stint as Chelsea boss, reveals the big-name he failed to bring to the Bridge and the one manager he didn’t see eye to eye with.
